My Raingame.exe was in the addon folder (#AddonPath#) and it worked. Now clean uninstall and install the new beta.

Now I put it in my "#@#Addons\RainGame.exe" and get the same error like eclectic-tech.
(The Bang is not false, because it happen too when I just click on the .exe)

With your new uploaded version I get still the error.

Ah, I see. No, it won't work in @Resources. It is designed to look for Rainmeter.exe two levels up from itself. You are going to have to put it in APPDATA\Rainmeter\Addons\RainGame\RainGame.exe and call it with #ADDONSPATH# until I think about how I want to handle this.

Yes, it needs to be in the %APPSDATA% path... I remembered you saying something about finding the .exe 2 levels above...

I tried it in the @Resources folder and got the error...
moving it to the %APPSDATA%Addons\Raingame folder eliminates the error.

Thanks JS!

Since it works when in the "new" location, you may not need to make any changes..
On the other hand, since everything related to a skin should be a single skin location (folder) making this work from the @Resouces folder would be convenient.

Hi all
Sorry if this is the wrong place for this post.
But since Raingame deals in the area where i have run into a problem, you might be able to help.

I have created this beautiful Rainmeter skin which uses the Hotkey plugin together with Nircmd to make a macro string for games. It works like a charm in the windows environment (Like a text editor). But as soon as i maximize the game, nothing happens when i hit the hotkey.

I suspect that Rainmeter is not active when a full screen application is maximized.
My code is as follows:

Returns the letter m in text editor but not in the game. (M should open a menu in-game)

I tried this line of code also, to play a sound for testing.
And it also only works when game is minimized
KeyDownAction=[#nircmd# mediaplay 10000 "C:\Users\Michael\Documents\Rockstar Games\GTA V\User Music\Bad Habits _ Tory Lanez Type Beat.mp3"]

Can i bring Rainmeter on top of the full screen game?
Why is Rainmeter not listening to keypresses when a full screen app is maxed?
Any suggestions is greatly appreciated.
Michael.
